  2. Former police officer Jess Greenacre is hoping to bury her past—and becoming a runner on a London film set is the change in scenery she needs. But she hadn't planned on running into award-winning actor Luke McKenzie on her very first day…and she certainly hadn't expected the earth-shattering kiss that leaves them both wanting more!  Luke has painful memories of his own, but could the honesty he finds in this captivating woman's eyes herald a new start…for both of them?

  4. p. 8 • I returned to my book–Bewick's History of British Birds: the letterpress thereof I cared little for, generally speaking; and yet there were certain introductory pages that, child as I was, I could not pass quite as a blank. They were those which treat of the haunts of sea-fowl; of "the solitary rocks and promontories" by them only inhabited; of the coast of Norway, studded with isles from its southern extremity, the Lindeness, or Naze, to the North Cape– • "Where the Northern Ocean, in vast whirls, • Boils round the naked, melancholy isles • Of farthest Thule; and the Atlantic surge • Pours in among the stormy Hebrides." • Nor could I pass unnoticed the suggestion of the bleak shores of Lapland, Siberia, Spitzbergen, Nova Zembla, Iceland, Greenland, with "the vast sweep of the Arctic Zone, and those forlorn regions of dreary space,–that reservoir of frost and snow, where firm fields of ice, the accumulation of centuries of winters, glazed in Alpine heights above heights, surround the pole, and concentre the multiplied rigours of extreme cold." Of these death-white realms I formed an idea of my own: shadowy, like all the half-comprehended notions that float dim through children's brains, but strangely impressive. The words in these introductory pages connected themselves with the succeeding vignettes, and gave significance to the rock standing up alone in a sea of billow and spray; to the broken boat stranded on a desolate coast; to the cold and ghastly moon glancing through bars of cloud at a wreck just sinking. • I cannot tell what sentiment haunted the quite solitary churchyard, with its inscribed headstone; its gate, its two trees, its low horizon, girdled by a broken wall, and its newly-risen crescent, attesting the hour of eventide. • The two ships becalmed on a torpid sea, I believed to be marine phantoms.
